Yeah. The so-called two-byte characters are not appropriate for those. If somebody doesn't beat be to it, I'll have to see if I can find where to fix that. But it's not going to be this month or next I'm afraid. I'm still trying to figure out whether I've got enough of the locale system set up to do something sensible when I say "export LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8". -- Joel Rees Be careful when you see conspiracy.
